Error message?  What happens if you retry?

Change 39791 was made by me to the sandbox area, it doesn't effect the Trunk 
so those messages will be empty.  The following change 39792 was also made 
by me: the merge of the sandbox code to the main Trunk, so obviously if I've 
broken something I'll be mortified :-(

However, all SVN operations seem OK here, so <shrug> for now I guess.
